Calcoo version 1

2007/08/18 Calcoo 1.3.18

• Fix: Legacy GTK+ 1.x function calls removed. Thanks to Rafal Muzylo for reporting the issue and providing some of the patches.

2007/07/14 Calcoo 1.3.17

• Fix: unsafe strcpy fixed. Thanks to Steve Kemp for reporting the bug and providing the fix.
• Fix: cleaned up parsing pasted selection.

2005/04/27 Calcoo 1.3.16

• Change: swithched to GTK+ 2.x. Changes needed for the switch involve keyboard accelerators, dialog windows (thanks to Reuben Peterkin for providing the patches), copy/paste functionality.
• Add: shortcut for the keypad comma (for German keyboards). Thanks to Andreas Hoppe for posting this problem at de.comp.os.unix.apps.kde and testing the fix.
• Fix: introduced lazy initialization of display digits to improve startup time.

2003/07/30 Calcoo 1.3.15

• Add: some keyboard shorcuts

2003/07/13 Calcoo 1.3.14

• Fix: addition/subtraction tweaked to have 100.1 - 100 - 0.1 equal to zero rather than to 10e-17 and so on. Ditto for log and log10. An analogous hack for the trigonometric functions improved. Thanks to Hinrich Buhr for posting this problem at fido.ger.linux.
• Fix: function int round(double) was renamed to int round_double_to_int(double) in order to prevent name conflicts under Mac OS X. Thanks to Mike Block for informing me about this issue.

2002/08/18 Calcoo 1.3.13

• Fix: bug which caused segfaults during pasting when the selection could not be retrieved. Thanks to Vincent Lefevre for discovering this bug.

2002/07/28 Calcoo 1.3.12

• Add: accelerator keys: "BackSpace" for undo, "Delete" for clear_x, "Up"/"Down" for stack scrolling (RPN mode).
• Add: mouse middle button now pastes into the main display.
• Add: info and options windows can now be closed by hitting Escape.
• Add: option to truncate trailing zeros when rounding to a fixed number of decimal places.
• Fix: processing of the command-line options moved to before the call to gtk_init(). As the result, it is now possible to run calcoo with options -h and -v even if no window can be opened.
• Fix: it turned out that changing options using the spacebar rather than the mouse was ignored (GTK bug?). Workaround enabled.
• Change: beautifications of the settings window.
• Change: minor code cleanups.

2002/07/05 Calcoo 1.3.11

• Fix: the bug in setting the color for the button labels and display glyphs. Now, calcoo DOES take this color from the current GTK+ scheme. The default color is fg[PRELIGHT] for the "default" style, as defined in ~/.gtkrc. It can be changed in defaults.h. Thanks to Jan Stocker for reporting this bug.

2002/06/19 Calcoo 1.3.10

• Change: In the RPN mode, the keys to swap registers X and Z, and X and T replaced with the keys to scroll the stack.
• Add: number input can be started with "e" now (mantissa defaults to 1).
• Fix: the lower bound for rounding is changed from "0" (which makes no sense) to "1".

2002/06/10 Calcoo 1.3.9

• Add: option to round output to N digits.
• Fix: bugs in the input interpretation which led to improper stack behavior when the number input was beginning with "." Thanks to Christian Weisgerber for discovering this bug.
• Fix: a minor bug which in scientific and engineering display modes caused unnecessary rounding of numbers very close to 1.

2002/06/02 Calcoo 1.3.8

• Change: non-integer powers of negative numbers now yield errors instead of weird results.
• Add: saving the selected angle units.
• Add: option to preserve original colors of pixmaps (in defaults.h). By default, they are converted to the foreground color.
• Change: pixmaps for deg/rad and fix/sci/eng indicators, some other pixmaps.
• Fix: bugs in saving "arc autorelease" and "hyp autorelease" settings.
• Change: minor code cleanups (mostly in b_settings.c)
• Add: window icons for Settings and Info windows.

2002/03/09 Calcoo 1.3.7

• Change: error handling. Now all the buttons except for undo and clear_all become grayed out when an error occurs.
• Fix: a bug in the initialization sequence, which could cause weird things displayed in the operation displays in the algebraic mode from the calcoo start until the first operation.
• Fix: a minor bug in the mode switching procedure, which could cause weird things displayed in the operation displays in the algebraic mode from just after switching from RPN to algebraic mode until the first operation.
• Change: Minor code cleanups.

2002/02/09 Calcoo 1.3.6

• Add: option to choose between infinite and four-element stack in RPN mode.

• Add: Shortcut Ctrl-q for exit.
• Change: Minor code cleanups.

2002/01/20 Calcoo 1.3.5

2001/12/14 Calcoo 1.3.4

• Change: RPN mode: behavior of the Enter button. Finally calcoo can satisfy all tastes for the behavior of the Enter button. Now there is an optionthat sets its behavior to traditional or HP-28-like.

2001/12/10 Calcoo 1.3.3 (for Debian GNU/Linux only)

• Change: RPN mode: behavior of the Enter button Now it works like in most HP calculators. (In 1.3.2 it was set to work as in HP-28, which was not quite standard).
• Add: keyboard shortcuts for parenthesis buttons.

2001/12/03 Calcoo 1.3.2

• Fix: RPN mode: behavior of the Enter button pressed when the number has just been entered.
• Change: now options and info/help have separate windows.
• Change: code cleanups.
• Add: engineering display format (the exponent is a multiple of 3).
• Fix: incorrect behavior when "=" is pressed before all parens are closed.
• Fix: adjacent opening parens are now possible.
• Fix: GtkErrors if the options applied are the same as the current ones.
• Add: "Help" tab in the info window.
• Change: register X is not reset by changing the mode now.

2001/11/19 Calcoo 1.3.1

• Change: body design, button arrangement.

• Add: more shortcuts.

2001/11/16 Calcoo 1.3.0

• Change: body design, button arrangement.

• Add: a button to swap X and memory registers.
• Add: another memory register.
• Add: displays for memory.
• Change: icons for memory buttons.

• Add: keyboard shortcuts for basic buttons.
• Add: help tab in the info window.
• Change: information about the current state of "enforced e format" and deg/rad is now stored in "cpu"; as a result now it is affected by undo/redo.
